The code that identifies the period table. The periods listed below are linked to this period table.
Periods (tcccp0170m000)Use this session to maintain periods by period table. With the Switch to Year Time Zone option on the appropriate menu you can switch from your time zone to the time zone that you specified in the Time Zone Code field in the Period Tables (tcccp0160m000) session. This is useful if your company is situated in the Asia time zone and the financial company is, for example, in the European time zone. If you want to make a new period set for Europe in Asia, the period must be recalculated to your time zone. With this new switching option, you can easily enter periods in a different time zone than your own system time zone.
Period Table Code The code that identifies the period table. The periods listed below are linked to this period table. Year The year for which the period data is defined. Year Time Zone The time zone to which the period table applies. If you click Switch to Year Time Zone on the appropriate menu, you can switch to the time zones that you specified in the Time Zone Code field of the Period Tables (tcccp0160m000) session. Period Number The sequence number for the period. The sequence number is generated automatically. Period Number The description of this period. Start Date The Start Date and End Date fields delimit the period. Note Periods cannot overlap. If the Check for Date in Year check box in the Period Tables (tcccp0160m000) session is selected, LN verifies that the start date is within the year that you specified in the Year field in the Generate Periods (tcccp0270m000) session. There must be no gaps between periods. Each start date can be the end date of the previous period. LN subtracts one second from the end date to avoid an overlap between the periods. Example
